Your independent marine surveyor for pre-puchase, valuation and damage suveys on the Slovenian Adriatic Sea
certified by
Whether you have your eye on a well-maintained motorboat in Marina Portorož or a classic sailing yacht in the traditional shipyard town of Izola: As certified yacht surveyors in Slovenia, we offer you the necessary security on site.
The Slovenian used boat market is attractive – many yachts change hands here, often internationally. A professional yacht appraisal protects you against this:
Our range of yacht appraisals and boat appraisals in Slovenia includes, among others:
When it comes to yacht surveys in Slovenia, one thing counts above all: experience, independence and technical depth. This is exactly what Yacht Experts stands for – successfully operating in the entire Adriatic region for years.
We work exclusively in your interests - without any ties to brokers, yards or sellers. You receive an honest, professionally sound assessment without any conflicts of interest.
Thanks to our many years of experience in Slovenia, Croatia and Italy, we know the local conditions and market circumstances inside out.
From moisture and osmosis measurements to structural analysis - we test systematically, document comprehensibly and deliver reliable results.
Our appraisals are accepted by insurance companies, banks and buyers throughout Europe - ideal for international transactions in the Slovenian market.
The costs for a yacht appraisal or boat appraisal in Slovenia are calculated individually and depend on the size of the yacht, the scope of the appraisal and the location. Request a non-binding offer to receive an exact cost estimate.
All prices are exclusive of VAT and do not include any travel expenses. As far as possible, we try to bundle viewing appointments within a region in such a way that the proportional travel costs are kept as low as possible.
We are regularly on duty in all major nautical centers in Slovenia and carry out surveys directly on site in marinas, shipyards and winter storage facilities.
Our most common areas of application include
Thanks to our branch in Rijeka, all marinas in Slovenia are easily accessible for us and appointments are therefore also available at relatively short notice.
“My wife and I commissioned Mr. Ingolf Schneider to prepare a purchase appraisal for a high-quality sailboat in the Izola Marina.
After just a short time, his trained eye and keen nose detected considerable damage in the keel area. A defect that would not have been visible to us with the naked eye.
We are very grateful to Mr. Schneider for this discovery, as it not only saved us from a high financial loss, but possibly also from a serious threat to our lives.”

As our representative office is only a good hour away from Izola or Koper, we can usually organize viewing appointments in all Slovenian marinas within a few working days.
In individual cases, however, it may take longer, as we are also dependent on the availability of crane appointments for the inspection of the underwater hull.
Most Slovenian marinas and shipyards have excellent lifting facilities and sufficient capacity for quick scheduling.
In order to avoid delays, however, it should be ensured that the boat or yacht is planned in advance and that cleaning of the UW vessel is also booked when the crane is reserved.
But don’t worry! Together with our offer you will receive a comprehensive checklist for your optimal preparation.
As standard, our expert reports are prepared in German or English.
However, we are also happy to provide a Slovenian translation for a small fee.
